My God is in Control!

When worries seem to overcome,

And tension fills my soul,

My God is just a prayer away,

I know He's in control.

When burdens seem so hard to bear,

And triumphs seem so few,

That's when He takes my hand once more,

To lead me right on through.

God has a reason for each trial,

And as my lief unfolds,

He knows the things I can't explain,

And what my future holds.

O'er mountains or through valleys,

I have learned to be content,

I know He'll work things out to be

The way that they were meant.

May I be strengthened by each trial,

May I, His name extoll,

And never should I once forget,

That God is in control!
